I've learned that posts with this kind of tone are often motivated solely for the benefit of the writer, not the reader. Spend some time with addicts and the ones who choose to share advice instead of personal experience are often a long way from healing because they haven't built the courage to look inside themselves yet. They speak this way because they're scared. She's obviously working through some things. A private journal might work better than a public one, because then she could delve into many of the topics she went light on: her sexuality, her relationship with her therapist, her self-image. Yet another thing she may be addicted to? Attention. Talk therapy works for many types of disorders. Group therapy scales some but not all. Because certain personality disorders manifest as everyone in the group trying to one up each other. There are huge swaths of blog and Facebook culture (and even academic publishing) that enable this. Best to avoid participating.
